问题 There is a rapid increase in population in that country that has caused food (short)______.

选项

答案shortage

解析 本题考查形容词转化为名词。这是一个定语从句,空格部分在从句中充当谓语动“cause”的宾语,宾语一般由代词、名词或名词短语组成。在本题中,需要将形容词“short”变为名词“shortage”(短缺,缺乏),构成名词短语“food shortage”,意为“食物短缺”。表示“……短缺”时可以用名词修饰名词的形式,如:“food/fuel/housing shortages(食物/燃料/住房短缺)”。还可以用另外一种形式,如:a shortage of rice/funds/equipment(大米/资金/设备短缺)。
